Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Rifa’ah bin Rafi’ bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade sharecropping and leasing of land, except that a person buys it or rents it for a specified period. Then he said that my respected father took a piece of land on loan from a person and cultivated it and built a structure on it. Then the owner of the land came there, saw the structure, and asked, “Who built this structure?” People said, “Such-and-such person to whom you had given the land on loan.” He said, “Is this the compensation for what I gave him?” People said, “Yes.” He said, “I will not leave from here until you demolish it.”
